In this classic backstage drama from the acclaimed filmmaking team of Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger, Vicky Page (played by the luminous Moira Shearer) is an aspiring ballerina torn between her dedication to dance and her desire to love. While her imperious instructor, Boris Lermontov, urges to her to forget anything but ballet, Vicky begins to fall for the charming young composer Julian Craster. Eventually Vicky, under great emotional stress, must choose to pursue either her art or her romance.
Featuring outstanding performances, blazingly beautiful cinematography by Jack Cardiff, Oscar-winning sets and music, and an unforgettable, hallucinatory central dance sequence, this beloved classic stands as an enthralling tribute to the life of the artist.
This community screening is graciously brought to you by NEON.
